How do I change the footer/footline of a single frame in Beamer?

Question

So basically I've got something like this at the top of my tex file:

\setbeamertemplate{footline}{Number \insertframenumber} 

This applies "Number <#>" to the footer/footline of all frames. Now what I want to do is change the footline for one single frame. Surprisingly, the following doesn't work:

\begin{frame}     \setbeamertemplate{footline}{New template \insertframenumber} \end{frame} 

How do I achieve changing the footline/footer for one single frame?

Thanks Thomas! For anyone else who might want to get this working, here's a complete example:

\documentclass{beamer} \setbeamertemplate{footline}{goo \insertframenumber}  \begin{document}     \begin{frame}[t]{Frame 1}         A     \end{frame}      { % these braces make the change local to the single frame         \setbeamertemplate{footline}{boo \insertframenumber}         \begin{frame}[t]{Frame 2}             B         \end{frame}     }      \begin{frame}[t]{Frame 3}         C     \end{frame} \end{document}
